Kaiku Haiku?

It drips
from the edges
of a blunt dagger.

It churns
the insides
of a rusty boiler.

It slithers
in the depths
of a stinking sewer.

It moistens
the sweat-streams
between skin and moving skin.

It weeps
in the blackness
of a windowless mind.

It laughs
from the tip
of an infant's pink toe.

The poem.
Everywhere.
Disguised.
Devious.
